    It was by far my worst year since I started in 2009 but I did have a nice win of £1000 holiday voucher from On the Beach. We added a couple of hundred pounds and had a lovely week all inclusive in Tenerife.



    Fingers crossed for a good 2017, wishing everyone lots of luck:)

    Very poor year - just two wins, but I have been really please with both - some lovely knitting needles that I wouldn't have treated myself to, so extra special. Also some children's fiction books - over £100 worth-all great titles and again something I couldn't have done.

    Just to even out all the amazing wins here, my best win this year was £100 lovetoshop vouchers. I was very pleased with them!


    Most used prize was some soxtrots riding socks for my daughter, she lives in them.
    Thanks for all your posts, sprinkle of luck required now.

    Not much to choose from but my best win was a 'treasure trove' of Rhodia notebooks and notepads (thee different size notepads, and three assorted notebooks). :D

    Not many to choose from to be honest, in terms of value it was probably the £100 worth of makeup from a mag daily but I ended up selling it as it wasn't the type of thing I'd have used, and I only made about £60 back from it. I won a £50 fuel voucher which was probably my most useful win, and not wishing to sound ungrateful but I genuinely haven't had one win this year that I was absolutely delighted with :-/

    Best win was a mini break to Torquay we're going to next August complete with train travel, the best suite at the Grand Hotel, meals, a spa day and spending money :)

    Most enjoyment is the 42" TV and blu-ray player I won for my parents just as their (way smaller) TV was dying.

    Oh and a special mention to the IPad Air I'm currently typing on!

    my best and favourite win was two tickets to the Queen's Birthday Party on the Mall - despite it raining for half the day it was an amazing, unforgettable experience from start to finish. I nearly missed out on the prize but for the persistence of a young lady at The Mirror who was determined to get hold of me :)
